99/100 people can't do the airsoft sniping thing. Just remember that. It's boring, and sometimes completely crap cause some guy will lob some bb's from 100yds away and hit you through some brush.. :lol:

On the flip side, if you invest a lot of time and money into a good weapon system you can have no problem reaching out to 100-120yds consistently.

Well I invested a small amount of time, and an okay amount of money and I can reach out to 100+ yds.  Now if i can just put it to good use.  Replacement springs and hop ups make a big diff,  now i'm thinking of upgrading to a tighter bore barrel.

Having a higher FPS does not make it a better gun.

The action is great, accurracy is amazing at 75yds I can hold a 4 inch grouping, and taking out soda cans at 100 yds is quite possible.

BS.  Prove it.

hey i never said it was possible in the first shot,  but its possible with a bit of windage.   last time i tried it it took bout 12 shots and that was in a warehouse so crosswind wasn't a factor.  but now i guess i'll have to make a video to prove the 4 soda can thing (empty soda cans BTW)

I have the MB04 same as the mb05 with out the adjustable buttstock.  It does have the adjustable cheek rest.  At its pretty powerful.  I can't speak for the L96 which was the rifle i was torn between as well.  But after dialing in the hop up and the scope i can't complain about the mb04.  I've fabricated a suppressor for mine, really for mor asthetic purposes than anything else and painted the stock and the barrel.   The action is great, accurracy is amazing at 75yds I can hold a 4 inch grouping, and taking out soda cans at 100 yds is quite possible.  I've seen some stuff on spring mods and tried them but once i do reassembly i can't get it to cock, so i've the spring alone and just done the hop up adjustments, Besides that was a pretty affordable buy for me.  My hearts set on a socom m82 someday however.  I haven't chrono'd it but i'm sure i'm up near 500fps, considering using .25g from 50 ft away it'll penetrate 4 soda cans.  IMO its a great rifle, and come's with everything you could want from a good scope to a great bipod.  Only issue i have is, like the L96 it has 2 allen screws that hold it to the stock and on initial assembly i could only get one of the two to engage.  but its still solid.

Any games here allow rifles above 450fps?  I understand some younger players might not have the pain threshold older players do, and some older players might not have the impulse control others do and get a little testy about a well placed contact shot, but most of the games i've seen pretty much out me since all of my rifles close to 500 fps.  Yes i like laying in wait for a shot to present itself, and engaging targets from as much stand off distance as possible,  are there any games that allow that style of engaging?

thanks for the heads up, and i might have to take you up on that prescott game.  Just keep me in mind and let me know when so i can arrange the time off.
